The East Boston Knights hosted the South Boston Saints with a chance to clinch the Yaz division. With that in mind the Knights used both Branden Eaton and Sean Hannon to ensure on this Knight they would be crowned division champs.

Eaton started and went 4 innings followed by Hannon for 3 and neither disappointed the largest crowd on hand in East Boston's history. The Saints could only muster up one hit off the duo, that being a slow roller up the middle off of the bat of Byron Evans in the first inning. The Knights pushed across single runs in the 2nd and 4th to take a 2-0 lead. Kenny Polanco was 3 for 3 with an RBI to lead the charge offensively for the Knights.

With 2 out in the top of the 7th pinch hitter Rob Stephenson grounded to Anthony Ortiz who fired to Ace DiNapoli to end the game and clinch the Yaz division!!!! For the Knights it is the first Division Championship and playoff appearance in their short history!!!
